Quiz yourself by thinking what should be in each of the black spaces below before clicking on it to display the answer.
        Help!  

Term
Definition
Valence Bond Theory   The concept that covalent bonds are formed when orbital of different a toms overlap; also called the localized electron theory  
🗑
Sigma bond   A hybrid bond in which an s and p orbital overlap end to end  
🗑
Pi bond   A bond in which there is a side-by-side overlap of the orbitals  
🗑
resonance   A molecular property where instead of oscillating between two different bond regions, the bonds take o n an intermediate character  
🗑
molecular orbital theory   A bonding theory that suggests that the orgbitals of a molecule's atoms are replaced by totally new orbitals when a molecule forms. These orbitals, both bonding and non-bonding, are linear combinations o f the atomic orbitals.  
🗑
VSEPR (valence shell electron pair repulsion)   A theory stating that because of electron-electron repulsion, the electron orbitals in molecules are arranged so that they are as far apart as possible around the central atom  
🗑
tetrahedral   A structural arrangement in which four areas of electron density surround a central atom are oriented toward the corners of a four-sided pyramid  
🗑
trigonal planar   A structural arrangement in which three particles surrounding a central particle are oriented toward the corners of a flat triangle  
🗑
linear   a structural arrangement in which particles are positioned in a straight line  
🗑
hybridization   The process of forming new kinds of orbitals with equal energies from a combination of orbitals of different energies  
🗑
pyramidal   a structural arrangement in which three particles and an unshared electron pair surrounding a central particle are oriented toward the corners of a four sided pyramid  
🗑
bent   A structural arrangement in which two particles are bonded to a central particle nonlinearly  
🗑
polar covalent bond   A chemical bond that has partially positive and partially negative ends because of unevenly shared electrons. All bonds between nonidentical atoms are polar  
🗑
dipole moment   The vector sum of the distance between charges and the strength of the charges; a measure of all bond polarities that exist within a molecule  
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
